While many Morris County residents are still without power Friday morning, another few thousand residents can turn on the lights today.

As of 7 a.m., nearly 139,000 Jersey Central Power & Light customers were still without power — a decrease from 8:20 p.m. on Thursday when about 142,000 were without electricity — according to JCP&L's outage map. However, 70 percent of county customers still have no power for hot water, light and the amenities of modern life.

According to JCP&L, Parsippany, the county's most
populated municipality, still has the most JCP&L customers without
power — nearly 14,000. Over 20,000 customers in the township were without power following Hurricane Sandy's landfall. That was followed by
Roxbury (8,965), Jefferson (8,446), Mount Olive (7,510), Washington Township (6,772), Denville (6,438) and Rockaway
Township (6,219).

Listed below are Morris County towns followed by their respective number of customers without power and the percentage of customers without power in each municipality, according to JCP&L.
